Victoria Beckham unveils second collection at New York Fashion Week

Victoria Beckham has unveiled her lower-priced second collection at New York Fashion Week, revealing that the line was inspired by Californian ‘nonchalance’.

The line encompasses plenty of fresh, light colours and pretty floral prints teamed with the high-necked, thigh-skimming features typical of Victoria’s designs.

However, the laid-back look marked a departure from her usual sleek, sophisticated high-fashion pieces.

Sitting with her 14-month-old daughter Harper on her lap, the pop star-turned-designer talked a group of editors and buyers through the collection, explaining that she was very much influenced by the LA lifestyle.

In her show notes, she wrote: ‘With this sportier approach and a laid-back ease these dresses represent everything I wanted to achieve with the line.

‘I often get asked how living in LA has influenced my aesthetic and this season Californian street style has been a key inspiration.

‘For me, that sense of nonchalance embraces the new fresh attitude to femininity I wanted to convey while staying true to the essence of the label.’

The models also carried bags from Victoria’s main collection, and wore ‘flatform’ shoes which Walter Steiger had designed especially for the show.

One highlight of the show was a midi-length wraparound dress in a dark blue with a contrasting white pattern, which stood out among the shorter, shift-style pieces.
